See the thread on the cult page itself: Costco Canada.

People are dropping their Costco memberships, and slowly weaning their shopping habits away from the American Bank owned: Costco. This is still the minority viewpoint as seen in the comments. But our education campaigns are slowly shifting the tides!
Remember, Costco is an American cult.
The same herd mentality that brought sheep into Costco’s doors will bring them out, and onto a Canadian run option.
Costco has no direct Canadian wholesale competitor, yet.
But I have a sense that’s going to change very soon. Costco is absolutely ripe for Canadian disruption. Go Leafs!
Usually about half the checkouts are there for holiday rushes, like Easter.
Costco has the unique problem that more tills open get bottlenecked at the receipt check, and you can’t let the checkout lane exits get blocked or your inner lanes stop moving.
